Rapala X-Rap Magnum Xplode 17cm 145g FFU

Rapala X-Rap Magnum Xplode 17cm 145g FFU — Explosive Topwater Action for Big Game Predators

The X-Rap Magnum Xplode delivers thunderous surface explosions that call in aggressive predators from a distance, built with Rapala's legendary Magnum-level durability to handle the most brutal strikes.

Magnum-Strength Construction

Engineered with a heavy through-wire design and thick-walled monoblock ABS body, this popper absorbs punishing attacks from giant trevally, tuna, and other hard-fighting tropical species. The 6X reinforced VMC 75 Series Tropic Spark Point hooks (#5/0) mounted on 250 lb split rings provide the hardware strength these battles demand.

All-Weather Stability with Maximum Attraction

A low-positioned tow point pulls the popper downward, keeping it stable even in rough seas and turbulent conditions. The deep cupped face generates explosive surface commotion and loud acoustics with every rod sweep, triggering reaction strikes from wary predators. At rest, the popper floats with a slight tail-down posture, perfectly presenting the hooks.
